It's the most wonderful time of the year - time for the annual 25 Days Of Christmas Movies Blog Hop! #ChristmasMoviesHop

We have 25 talented bloggers gathered together to share with you all the wonderful crafts and recipes you can make this Christmas season, based off of some of the most beloved holiday classic films. There are 25 films to be inspired by for your holiday season, and 25 talented bloggers to aid your inspiration! If you love Christmas movies, you have come to the right place!!

I am super excited because I'm sharing one of my favorite movies: How the Grinch Stole Christmas!

So much of the holidays is focused on food, and oh man, do I love it, but since I've been trying to be better since I started medicating my thyroid, I decided to focus on something a bit better for me than sugar laden treats. If I could choose any meal to eat with my family, it would be breakfast. Dinners are so hectic, often running in from an activity and eating it quickly so we can take tubbies, pack lunches, and get into pajamas before the next day starts, but breakfast is pajamas and the couch, full of snuggles and laziness.

There are so many overly sweet breakfasts, and trust me, I love them, but when I think of The Grinch, I think of Dr. Suess which makes me think of Green Eggs and Ham, which is my favorite. By combining my favorite Christmas movie, with my favorite Dr Seuss book, with a healthy breakfast, I came up with my amazingly delicious Grinchy Green Egg and Ham Sandwiches!

Ham, eggs, cheese, and avocado. Yum. My husband loves it as a sandwich, with a fried egg on a grilled English muffin, but I love it as hard boiled eggs without the bread (okay, maybe I'm just saving the carbs....)

With such a simple meal, I can spend extra time with my kids on the couch. The whole thing can be made in 2 pans or less which means clean up is a breeze also!

Plus, if I eat healthier over the course of the month, it makes eating a couple homemade cinnamon rolls on Christmas morning a little bit more enjoyable.
